I think Friday afternoon would be perfect, a bit of positive news, weekend to settle the nerves on the announcement, trade Monday. A further suspension would just give the nay sayers further opportunity to question the foundations of the announcement, hence turn a positive into a negative, you only have to look at the bulk of the posts on here to see the company is drowning in negativity (not entirely without reason). Positive announcement, positive action = a more positive and possibly tempered reaction to the long layoff
In saying that I admit I don't really have a clue.
